Troutdale man ‘time bomb’ to neighbors

TROUTDALE, Ore. (KOIN) — For the second time in two weeks, a Troutdale man was in court charged with menacing and pointing a firearm at another person, and police searched his home Thursday looking for more weapons.

Troutdale police said they’ve gotten calls from neighbors of Brent Wright that he’s been a problem, but over the past two weeks things have gotten much worse.

On July 25, Lloyd Fivecoats was parked on the street waiting for a friend near Wright’s home when he said the 53-year-old man pointed an assault rifle at the car.

They left, but he drove back and his friend captured cellphone images and video. A voice is heard on the video, “Holy —-! Call the ——- cops!”
